Impact of seaweeds extracts applied to grapevine cv Tempranillo

Abstract

Grapevine is one of the most-frequently phytosanitary treated crop systems. Consequently, restrictions have been applied by the European Commission on the number of pesticide treatments and the maximum quantity of copper fungicides allowed per year. Moreover, there is a need and an increasing demand for more ecological-sustainable agricultural products.
Seaweeds are currently used as fertilizers in viticulture, as they have been proven to be beneficial in several ways related to growth and nutrition. In addition, some seaweeds have shown to induce resistance towards phytopathogenic organisms by stimulating the natural defenses of grapevines.
In this work two seaweed extracts, one from Ulva ohnoi and one from Rugulopteryx okamurae, have been tested in Tempranillo plants in an open-field experiment in Jerez de la Frontera. The goal was to describe their impact on grapequality and microbial ecology.
Interestingly, while treatments did not enhance grape yield, significant differences were found in shoot length and grape composition. Both seaweeds promoted the accumulation of tannins, while anthocyanins were significantly higher only in Ulva treated grapes. Grapes fungal and bacterial identification is being conducted to determine whether seaweeds alter the abundances of important taxa from the winemaking viewpoint.
This is the first field trial applying extracts from the invasive seaweed Rugulopteryx okamurae in grapevine, and while the experiment should be repeated on time, this seaweed extract is sought to be a promising solution meeting viticultural demands. At the same time, its use in agriculture could contribute to decreasing the algae accumulation from our coasts.

Deciphering grapevine trunk early molecular responses to P. minimum and P. chlamydospora in the presence of a commercial biocontrol agent (Trichoderma atroviride, Vintec®)

Esca, one of the main grapevine trunk diseases, is a complex and poorly understood disease. Phaeoacremonium minimum and Phaeomoniella chlamydospora, two of the main pathogens associated to this disease, are thought to be responsible for the first trunk infections. Little is known concerning grapevine trunk defenses during pathogen infection.

Evaluation of six red grapevine cultivars inoculated with Neofusicoccum parvum in a “terroir” of La Mancha wine región (Spain)

Aim: Among Botryosphaeriaceae species associated with Botryosphaeria dieback of grapevines, Neofusicoccum parvum is one of the most virulent and fastest wood-colonizing fungi. This study aimed to evaluate the susceptibility of six red grapevine cultivars (“Bobal”, “Monastrell”, “Garnacha Tinta”, “Moravia Agria”, “Tinto Velasco” and “Moribel” to N. parvum, under field conditions.

Selective and sensitive quantification of wine biogenic amines using a dispersive solid-phase extraction clean-up/concentration method

Biogenic amines exist in numerous foods, including wine. They can have aliphatic (putrescine, cadaverine, spermine, and spermidine), aromatic (tyramine and phenylethylamine) and heterocyclic structure (histamine and tryptamine)

Sensory definition of green aroma concept in red French wines. Evidence for the contribution of novel volatile markers

The aromatic complexity of a wine results from the perception of the association of volatile molecules and each aroma can be categorized into different families. The “green” aromas family in red wines has retained our attention by its close link with the fruity perception. In that study, the “green” olfactory concept of red wines was considered through a strategy combining both sensory analysis and hyphenated chromatographic techniques including HPLC and MDGC (Multidimensional Gas Chromatography). The aromatic space of this concept was specified by lexical generation through a free association task on 22 selected wines by a panel of wine experts. Then, 70 French red wines were scored on the basis of the intensity of their “green” and “fruity” attributes.
